I'm trying to get all the entry for the Application & system Log. The thing is that i want it to be on a .csv format. When i'm doing a backup it's giving me all weird character. I found this example :
handle=Win32::EventLog->new("system",$ENV{ComputerName}); $handle->GetNumber($recs); $handle->GetOldest($base); while ( $x < $recs ) { $handle->Read(EVENTLOG_FORWARDS_READ|EVENTLOG_SEEK_READ,$base+$x +,$HashRef); if ( $HashRef->{Source} eq "EventLog") { Win32::EventLog::GetMessageText($HashRef); print FH "Entry $x : $HashRef->{Message}\n"; } else { Win32::EventLog::GetMessageText($HashRef); print FH2 "Entry $x : $HashRef->{Message}\n"; }

It's only giving me a part of what i want. I would like to have all the information from each entry of the log. I read a bit over the internet about it and couldn't find what i was looking for. I'm sure one of you monks will know the answer ;-)
